富岡八幡宮に行きました‼️ 平日夕方４時半でした。参拝客はほとんどいませんでした。とても悲しい事件があったからかな。手水舎は金の鳳凰。しかも自動で出てきます。お水にはお花がたくさん浮かんでいて、とても細やかな心遣いです。綺麗。令和９年に鎮座400年になるらしく今工事をしていて残念ながら資料館も閉館しています。伊東深水の獣王が見たかった💦 本殿は美しい。外国人観光客もほとんど見かけなくてとても静かでした。

歴史は偉大で身内同士の殺人事件などものともせずに賑わっている。大関石碑より目立たないところに横綱石碑もある。その他、古い人形のお焚き上げを受け付けるところや、七福神とかもある。

高知の八幡宮さんが氏神様なので、八幡宮つながりで参拝させていただきました。伊能忠敬の像があったり、昭和天皇の碑があったりで、歴史とかを知るにはいい場所です。
